ummmm...I personally don't like 5 spoke...too plain IMO, unless they're either JIC Force 5's, Enkei RP03's or Advan Kreiser (sp) V.

I'd rather go either split spoke (Volk RE30's or Enkei RPF1's)

but then again...i still don't know your budget.

have you decided on what size and width you're going with yet?

 

fixed.

 

I think those are a 'little' out of her reach after your recent purchase

 

thats kind of how i feel.. i think they are a little on the plain side.. i guess my budget is around 1300 or some where around there and im getting them from a local shop.. i want something deff noticible but nothing cheesey or cheap looking ..

 

and im going with 18s

 

and that price is for the tire and rim both

 

Is $1300 including new tires as well? Or just wheels alone?

EDIT: you answered this question like 12 seconds before I asked it.

 

i think a staggered 3 spoke will look good to... but 5 is good to

 

yeah lol... gaa theres way to many to choose from.. lol

 

this i want on my 8 3spoke staggered

 

what kind is that?

 

^

yeah...definitely not in her price range - Yokohama's...beautiful wheel none-the-less but $1300 will only get you a wheel and a half

 

advan racing ver2

 

if your looking for some nice rims with tire package ill say try wheelsnext.com they good with the prices and free shipping. you can find some falkens with tired for 750 for 18's not bad

 

744 US dollars with tires

 

Ok so out of the budget given.

Here's some options for you.

Enkei RPF1's - 18x9.5 w/tire

Some forum vendors sell this set up - see if you can get a deal.



or

Rota Boost 18x10 +45(I apologize for the pic size)



$999 for wheels - no tires included


Rota Grid 18x8.5 +38 (they also come in other colors)



$999


Rota SVN 18x9 +30




I know a lot of people don't approve of using knock off brands but if you're really not looking for name brand - and you don't plan on driving the car too hard (i.e. Track, auto-x) and you're not concerned about horrible wheel weight (like 25+ lbs per wheel) then the Rota's aren't a bad choice.

My first choice would be the rpf1's though

 

yeah i like those rims there nice.. do you guys think that on discount tire their rims are pretty nice? ive seen a few on there but havent heard the names to often.. or around here anyways

 

ummmm yeah no...

Go check out some of the forum vendors...I'm telling you.

Go to the front page and look at what some of the forum vendors are selling right now...Fluid Motorsports always has sales and Rishie at AutoRnd always has sales (his site might still be down, but he still dishes out orders)

here's some more websites that might help you make a decision on wheels

www.1010tires.com (<=favorite site because it'll give you wheel size, width, offset and weight)

www.wheeldude.com
www.wheelsnext.com
www.hopupracing.com
www.good-win-racing.com

^^ i frequent these sites and they're pretty legit. I strongly suggest checking out these sites before purchasing your wheels

 

okayy thanks for your help

 

NP

definitely post up what wheels you're lookin' to get - you definitely don't want to get the wrong size (i.e. 17x7.5 or something ) or the wrong offset or something dumb like wrong lug pattern

 

um that was 744 for all 4 rims and tired bro thats cheat 18's

 

oh okay.. yeah im pretty much planning on oredering them today though.. i just hope that i order it and when it comes in not liken it

 

Isn't an Enkei wheel an Enkei wheel no matter who you buy it from? I just ordered wheels from Discount Tire Direct - I would have preferred another vendor, but in the end, they had the best price by far, on the same merchandise, so why wouldn't you buy it from them? I don't think Discount Tire stocks all the super high-end brands, but if you find the same wheels there for less, I don't know why you'd pay more just to buy them from somewhere else.

For example, Konig Hotswap 19x8 on Discount Tire Direct are $195 each. Konig Hotswap 19x8 on Wheelsnext are $283 each. Petrol Octane 19x8s are $320 on DTD, $349 on Wheelsnext.

Obviously, customer service and such is important, but I don't know why there would be any difference in quality between vendors for the same wheels by the same manufacturer.

 

yeah that is true.. im just looking on more of the style i want.. im just planning or getting them from a local anyways.. i can get a good deal from them but itll be the same from where they order it...right now i have it narrowed down to konig hot swap and incident.. x line by oz aderalina .. sport edition f 10.. liquid metal velocity, venom, rial bari... thats still alot to choose from but thats about the style and looks i want

 

Well I am thinking about these on my TG. I will sit on it for a couple months though. I can never make up my mind. Haha
